Purpose and Use of this Plan
This Geographic Response Plan (GRP) constitutes the federal and state on-scene coordinators’ orders during the initial phase of an oil spill: from the time a spill occurs until a Unified Command is established. Its main focus is sensitive resource protection. The plan prioritizes tactical response strategies based on locations where spills might occur and the proximity of those locations to natural, cultural, and economic resources at risk of injury. By using this document it’s hoped that immediate and proper action can be taken to reduce spilled oil’s impact on sensitive resources within the planning area.
After a spill occurs, control and containment at, or near, the spill source are top priorities. Beyond those efforts, the tactical response strategies provided in this plan should be implemented using the priority tables in Chapter 4, unless overflight observations, spill trajectory models, or unique circumstances dictate otherwise.
This plan also provides information about the type and location of natural and economic resources in the area. Specific information about the location of cultural sites were taken into consideration in the development of this plan but such information cannot be provided in this document due to the confidential nature of the resources.

‐ INTRODUCTION
This plan focuses on sensitive resource protection after an oil spill occurs. It serves as the federal and state on‐scene‐coordinators’ orders during the initial phase of an oil spill response in the Moses Lake/Crab Creek area. It has been approved by Regional Response Team 10 and the Chairs and Co‐ Chairs of the Northwest Area Committee. Changes to this document are expected as more testing is conducted through drills, site visits, and actual use in spill situations. We value your input and hope that you’ll let us know how the plan might be improved. Please submit comments online at http://www.rrt10nwac.com/Comment. Comments may also be emailed to [email protected] or submitted by mail using the form and information provided in the appendix of this chapter.
The Moses Lake/Crab Creek GRP planning area covers all of Moses Lake and Rocky Ford Creek, and 136 miles of Crab Creek extending from the Stratford Road bridge in the city of Moses Lake upstream to the creek’s crossing at State Highway 2 about 2.7 miles west of Reardon. Upstream to downstream, Crab Creek passes through the towns or cities of Odessa, Irby, Krupp, Wilson Creek, Stratford, and Moses Lake. The planning area fully resides within the limits of Grant and Lincoln Counties, and includes portions of Water Resource Inventory Area 41 (WRIA‐41, Lower Crab), WRIA‐42 (Grand Coulee), and WRIA‐43 (Upper Crab‐Wilson). Additional information about the planning area, including physical features, hydrology, climate and winds, and spill risks, can be found in Chapter 2 (Site Description). Information about potential response options in the planning area can be found in Chapter 3 (Response Options and Considerations).
The bulk of this plan is contained in Chapter 4. It provides information on tactical response strategies and the order they should be implemented, based on potential spill origin points and their proximity to sensitive resources. Area and sector maps and information on staging areas and boat launch locations are also provided in that chapter.
Control and Containment of an Oil Spill are a Higher Priority than the Implementation of GRP Response Strategies
If in the responder’s best judgment, control and containment of an oil spill at or near the source of a spill isn’t feasible, or if the source is controlled and contained but oil has spread out beyond initial containment, then the priorities laid out in Section 4.3 of this plan should take precedence until a Unified Command is formed. It’s important to note that spill response priorities, beyond those described in this plan, should rely on aerial observations and spill trajectory modeling. A booming strategy listed as a high priority in Section 4.3 would not necessarily be implemented if a spill trajectory didn’t warrant action in that area; however, the priority tables should be followed until spill trajectory information becomes available. During an incident, modifications to the deployment
CHAPTER 1 11 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015 priorities provided in Section 4.3 of this plan may be made if approved by the Incident Commander or Unified Command.
The downstream movement of oil and the time it takes to mobilize response resources to deploy GRP strategies must always be considered when setting strategy implementation priorities. The strategies discussed in this plan have been designed for use with persistent oils that float on water and may not be suitable for other petroleum products or hazardous substances. For hazardous substance spills, refer to the Northwest Area Contingency Plan (NWACP), Chapter 7000.
Information meant to support initial Environmental Unit functions can be found in Chapter 6 (Resources at Risk). That chapter and its appendix provide specific information about the type and location of natural and economic resources in the area. Specific information about the location of cultural sites in the planning area were taken into consideration in the development of this plan but such information cannot be provided in this document due to the confidential nature of the resources.

1.2 GEOGRAPHIC RESPONSE PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
GRPs are part of the Northwest Area Contingency Plan, revised and distributed separately. They’ve been developed for the marine and inland waters of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. The plans are prepared through the efforts of, and in cooperation with, Washington Department of Ecology, Oregon Department of Environmental Quality, Idaho State Emergency Response Commission, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, as well as other state and federal agencies, tribal and local governments, response organizations, emergency responders, and communities. GRPs are developed through workshops and meetings with representatives of these organizations as well as local oil spill emergency response experts, industry, environmental and conservation organizations, ports, and pilots, among others. Participants identify resources that may be at risk of
CHAPTER 1 12 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015 injury from spills and attempt to develop oil spill response or notification strategies to reduce the chance of injury to those resources.
After compiling information on sensitive resources in the area, site visits are conducted to gather data and determine if spill response strategies near those resources should be added, modified, or deleted. In this, the anticipated effectiveness of existing strategies are reviewed, modifications made as determine necessary, potentially unsafe or ineffective strategies removed, and new strategies added to the plan. Unfortunately, the dynamics of marine and inland water environments and the present limitations of response technology make the development of strategies for all resource locations impracticable. A draft plan is produced after site visits are completed, and made available for public review and comment before a final version of the GRP is produced and published. A responsiveness summary is also published that addresses public comments received during the GRP update process.
1.3 STANDARDIZED RESPONSE LANGUAGE
In order to avoid confusion in response terminology, this plan uses standard National Interagency Incident Management System, Incident Command System (NIIMS ICS) terminology.
1.4 TERMINOLOGY AND DEFINITIONS
The glossary provided in Section 1910 of the NWACP and other sections of the area plan with glossaries independent of Section 1910 should be used when seeking the meaning of terms used in this plan.

- SITE DESCRIPTION
2.1 CHAPTER INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides a description of the area’s physical features, hydrology, climate and winds, and includes an overview of oil spill risks in the Moses Lake / Crab Creek area. The planning area includes all of Moses Lake and Rocky Ford Creek, and 136 miles of Crab Creek extending from the Stratford Road bridge in the city of Moses Lake upstream to the creek’s crossing at State Highway 2 about 2.7 miles west of Reardon. Upstream to downstream, Crab Creek passes through the towns or cities of Odessa, Irby, Krupp, Wilson Creek, Stratford, and Moses Lake. The planning area fully resides within the limits of Grant and Lincoln counties, and includes portions of Water Resource Inventory Area 41 (WRIA-41, Lower Crab), WRIA-42 (Grand Coulee), and WRIA-43 (Upper Crab- Wilson).
2.2 PHYSICAL FEATURES
Moses Lake and Crab Creek lie within the Channeled Scablands of east-central Washington, a complex of “vein-like” channels, rock basins, broad coarse‑grained alluvial deposits, and loess islands created by a series of cataclysmic Pleistocene mega-floods.1 The floods originated from the margins of the Cordilleran Ice Sheet, particularly Lake Missoula in Montana2 and scoured prominent pathways into the base geology of the Columbia River Basalt Group.3 Crab Creek flows through one of these scoured pathways. Grand Coulee is another channel where large volumes of flowing water scoured a channel about 1 mi wide. As the flood waters discharged from Grand Coulee and entered the Quincy basin, a structurally controlled depression in central Washington, flood-entrained sediment dropped from suspension and bed-load, thereby emplacing the alluvial Ephrata Fan. The Ephrata Fan is composed of boulders and larger clasts at its northern extent near Grand Coulee and fines progressively southward from boulders to sands and finer material.4
Moses Lake is a shallow, elongated-branched lake, approximately 20 miles in total length and 11 square miles in total area with a mean depth of 18.5 feet.5 It was formed by the natural damming of

CHAPTER 2 17 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015 the Moses Lake dune field; the dune field formed by eolian reworking of the flood deposits at the distal end of the Ephrata Fan.6 The lake lies in topographically lower channels incised into the southern extent of the Ephrata Fan. It has three major arms; the main arm (also called the Rocky Ford Arm) is located to the north, and Parker and Pelican Horns are to the south, separated by an area known as the Lower Peninsula. Lewis Horn is a smaller embayment located on the northern side of Parker Horn. Two main surface tributaries drain to the lake: Rocky Ford Creek to the main arm, and Crab Creek into Parker Horn.7
Crab Creek is a small, perennial creek flowing through the arid and semiarid Columbia Plateau. Between Brook Lake and Moses Lake, the creek follows the eastern edge of the Ephrata Fan, flowing on or adjacent to exposed bedrock as well as over the coarser substrate of the fan. Upstream of Brook Lake, Crab Creek follows an outburst flood coulee flowing over fractured, basaltic bedrock mantled with alluvium.² Some of the surrounding catchment draining into Crab Creek, particularly in the upper watershed, is composed of topographically higher terraces of the Palouse Formation, Quaternary loess deposits that escaped scour and removal by the Lake Missoula floods. Although recruitment of suspended sediment into Crab Creek from the bedrock valley floor and the coarse- grained fan deposits is governed by weathering rates from otherwise immobile surfaces, more fine- grained sediment is presumably supplied by the Palouse Formation uplands when rainfall or snowmelt create runoff. 5
Peatlands: Hundreds of acres of peatlands exist along Crab Creek between the towns of Wilson Creek and Krupp/Marlin. They were formed out of the old bottom of Crab Lake, which was drained by a ditch in 1907. 8 The peatlands extend from a point approximately 2-miles west of Krupp/Marlin and continue west along Crab Creek to a location just south of Wilson Creek. Generally, the peatlands are bounded to the north by the BNSF railroad line and to the south by Highway WA-28 and Road 22 NE.
2.3 HYDROLOGY
Moses Lake is shallow with an average depth of 18 ft and a maximum depth of 38 ft under full-pool conditions. The surface area of the lake is 6,800 acres.9 Surface discharge from Moses Lake is controlled by two dams operated by U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), both located at the southern end of the lake and used to convey water from the East Low Canal to Potholes Reservoir.

CHAPTER 2 18 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
The lake surface elevation is manipulated by the USBR throughout the year for irrigation management. Just prior to the irrigation season (normally in mid-March) the lake level is set to an elevation of approximately 1046-1047 feet above mean sea level (AMSL), and remains there throughout the summer. At the end of the irrigation season (typically late October) the lake level is lowered to approximately 1041 feet AMSL to create storage capacity for winter/early spring runoff, and to protect and allow maintenance of shoreline structures.10 Two main surface tributaries drain to Moses Lake: Rocky Ford Creek to the main arm, and Crab Creek into Parker Horn.
Rocky Ford Creek is one of two natural tributaries to Moses Lake. It is unique as a tributary because of its small watershed size (104 km2) and yet relatively large mean annual flow. The creek has an annual average flow of 78.2 cfs.11 The 90th and 10th percentile flows for Rocky Ford Creek are 94 and 46 cfs, respectively. The mean flow for the 2000-01 water year was 57 cfs, nearly a 20th percentile flow for the 1977 to 2001 time period. The flows in Rocky Ford Creek are relatively stable (day to day) and most of the time range between 40 and 100 cfs. There is a slight seasonal variation, with higher flows occurring during the latter half of the year (May – Dec). Rocky Ford Creek originates as a series of springs at the Troutlodge 1 fish hatchery and then flows south from the springs for approximately eight miles, discharging to the north end of the main arm of Moses Lake. The Troutlodge 2 hatchery also uses Rocky Ford Creek about a mile downstream of the headsprings. Most of the flow at the head of Rocky Ford Creek is diverted through both fish hatcheries. Just above the mouth of the creek is a small retention pond created by a dam built in 1987 to retain phosphorus and prevent carp from entering the creek. 12
Crab Creek is the more variable natural tributary to Moses Lake compared to Rocky Ford Creek. Although its watershed area is 2040 square miles, it has a lower annual mean flow to Moses Lake than Rocky Ford. During the summer, much of Crab Creek flow goes underground. Prior to the beginning of the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project (CBIP) in 1952, Crab Creek surface flow was negligible except during periods of heavy winter/spring runoff. Since 1960, the mean annual flow has been 44.5 cfs. However, Crab Creek essentially has two flow regimes (winter and summer). Flow in Crab Creek is highly variable (unpredictable) in January through April, and relatively stable (predictable) from May to December. High flows can occur from January through April and, in some years, large winter/spring runoff events have produced flows greater than the entire annual flow of Rocky Ford Creek. Large winter/spring runoffs (>500 cfs) have occurred during 40% of the last 40 years, with four large events occurring in four successive years in the late 1990s. Between October 2000 and September 2001, there was not a winter/spring runoff event. In fact, the 2000-01 water year flow was the lowest since 1977. There was discontinuous flow below Brook Lake the entire

CHAPTER 2 19 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015 year, until a gradual accumulation of subsurface seepage (and possible irrigation returns) around the Gloyd Seeps area again provided for a small surface flow into Moses Lake. Summer time flows into Moses Lake from Crab Creek initiate from these sub-surface (or return) flows near Gloyd Seeps.11 The Rocky Coulee Wasteway is an engineered canal that enters Crab Creek just upstream of Moses Lake. The wasteway primarily carries releases from the East Low Canal with some intermittent natural runoff from Rocky Coulee.
Change in Flow Regime: The Bureau of Reclamation identified Crab Creek and Frenchman Hills Wasteway as the preferred alternative to supply additional water to the South Columbia Basin Irrigation District (SCBID). This alternative releases feed water from Billy Clapp Reservoir through a 4ft by 4ft outlet into Brook Lake, a natural waterbody within the Crab Creek channel. The water is then conveyed down Crab Creek into Moses Lake and the Potholes Reservoir. Water is also released from Billy Clapp Reservoir via the Main Canal and West Canal, into the Frenchman Hills Wasteway, and then into Potholes Reservoir. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) requested an option be included for Crab Creek with occasional higher flows in the spring. To accommodate WDFW’s request and meet the water supply demands of the SCBID the following flow targets were devised: approximately 100cfs of base flow released from Billy Clapp Reservoir year-round with a larger spring feed of up to 500cfs occurring between April 1 and June 30. The spring flow regime is implemented with the input of fish and wildlife agencies. This flow regime lasts no longer than two seasons and is expected to reoccur about every decade. Between cycles, perennial flows are resumed.13
Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs): Portions of WRIA 41 (Lower Crab), WRIA-42 (Grand Coulee), and WRIA-43 (Upper Crab-Wilson) fall within the planning area. Most of the precipitation within all three WRIAs arrives during the winter months, when water demands are the lowest. During the summer, the snowpack is gone, there is little rain, and naturally low stream flows are dependent on groundwater inflow. This means that groundwater and surface water are least available when water demands are the highest. Only a fraction of the annual precipitation in each area becomes groundwater that’s available for human and economic uses.
WRIA 41 (Lower Crab): The Lower Crab Watershed located in eastern Washington includes the portion of the Crab Creek between Ephrata and its confluence with the Columbia River. In addition, there are numerous tributary creeks and streams of which most are seasonal. Annual precipitation ranges from 7 inches per year in the Beverly area, to somewhat over 10 inches in the higher elevations.14
Water Resource Inventory Area 42 (Grand Coulee): The Grand Coulee Watershed located in eastern Washington includes a number of reservoirs, small lakes and streams. The two reservoirs of note are Banks Lake and Billy Clapp Lake. These are used in part as control

reservoirs for the Columbia Basin Project and are supplied by water diverted from the Columbia River. In addition, many of the smaller streams and some of the lakes are seasonal. The annual precipitation in the Grand Coulee Watershed ranges from 7 inches per year in the Soap Lake area, to 12 inches in the higher elevations.15
Water Resource Inventory Area 43 (Upper Crab-Wilson): The Upper Crab-Wilson Watershed located in eastern Washington includes that portion of the Upper Crab Creek above Stratford and Wilson Creek. In addition, there are numerous tributary creeks and streams of which most are seasonal. The annual precipitation in the Upper Crab-Wilson Watershed ranges from 8 inches per year near Stratford, to 15 inches in the higher elevations.16
2.4 CLIMATE AND WINDS
The Moses Lake/Crab Creek GRP planning area falls within the Central Basin region of Washington, which has the lowest precipitation rates in Washington State. Annual precipitation averages around 7 inches. Precipitation is commonly associated with summer thunderstorms and winter rains and snowfall. Snowfall depths rarely exceed 8 to 15 inches and occur from December through February. High temperatures in January can range from 30F to 40F degrees with low temperatures between 15F to 25F degrees. Summer high temperatures are usually in the lower 90s (F) with low temperatures in the upper 50s (F).17 The Central Basin is subject to “chinook” winds which produce a rapid rise in temperature.
Prevailing winds in the area are generally from the north in August through April, and south and south-southwest in May through July.18 Average wind speed at the Moses Lake Airport is 7.3mph. The lightest winds are usually experienced in December at 5.9mph. Winds are typically strongest in May and June with average wind speeds of 8.5 to 8.6mph, respectively. 19
2.5 TIDES AND CURRENTS
Waters within the Moses Lake/Crab Creek GRP planning area are not influenced by tides or tidal currents.

CHAPTER 2 21 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
2.6 RISK ASSESSMENT
The Moses Lake / Crab Creek area is plentiful in natural, cultural, and economic resources, all at risk of injury from oil spills. Potential oil spill risks include, but aren’t limited to, road transportation, rail transportation, oil pipelines, aircraft, recreational boating, and other oil spill risks. This section briefly discusses these risks and how they could impact the Moses Lake and the greater GRP planning area.
Road Transportation Vehicle traffic on roadways pose an oil spill risk in the area. Commercial trucks can contain hundreds to thousands of gallons of fuel and oil, and almost any kind of hazardous waste or material. An accident involving a fully loaded tank truck on the Interstate-90 Bridge across Moses Lake, or on Highway 17 crossing over Crab Creek or Rocky Ford Creek, could result in a substantial oil spill. Smaller vehicle accidents pose a similar risk, commensurate to the volume of fuel and oil they carry. Spills from vehicles onto roadways could cause fuel or oil to flow from ditches or harden surfaces into streams, creeks, wasteways, or storm water systems ultimately impacting Moses Lake, Crab Creek, Rocky Ford Creek or other streams in the area.
Rail Transportation and Facilities Train locomotives typically hold several thousand gallons of diesel fuel plus large quantities of lube and motor oils. Loaded train tank cars can contain tens of thousands of gallons of crude oil or other petroleum products. Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad’s Columbia River Subdivision crosses the headwaters of Rocky Ford Creek south of Soap Lake and generally runs adjacent to Crab Creek between Adrian and Odessa. Further upstream, the subdivision crosses Crab Creek near Bluestem Road about 4 miles west of Edwall. The Columbia River Subdivision is used for mostly intermodal trains coming from or going to Seattle and empty trains. There are however mixed cargo trains that can also carry Hazardous Materials and Petroleum Products on this line.
Oil Pipelines The Yellowstone Pipeline crosses Crab Creek at three locations; within the cities of Moses Lake and Odessa, and in northeastern Grant County about a mile downstream from the boundary with Lincoln County. The pipeline transports thousands of gallons of refined petroleum products each year; mainly diesel and gasoline. If the pipeline were to leak or rupture, impact to sensitive resources in the area could be significant.
Aircraft Grant County International Airport is located north of the City of Moses Lake, adjacent to the Rocky Ford Arm of the lake, opposite Highway 17. There is always a potential for aircraft failures during inbound and outbound flights that could result in fuel releases to water.
CHAPTER 2 22 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
Recreational Boating Accidents involving recreational water craft on Moses Lake could result in spills of a few gallons of fuel oil to several dozen gallons. Accidents could include a vessel grounding, fire, sinking, or explosion. Bilge discharges and refueling operations could also occur (and are likely most common) and also have the potential to impact sensitive resources on Moses Lake and in the area.
Fuel Storage Tanks The storage of fuel in Above Surface Tanks (ASTs) and Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) on lands near or adjacent to Moses Lake, Rocky Ford Creek, Crab Creek, or tributary streams pose an oil spill risk. ASTs with no secondary containment system to catch and contain oil leaking from the primary container/tank are especially concerning. Inadequate or breached secondary containment systems are also a concern since they might not hold the entire contents of an AST if lost. Without detection, oil product seeping from a UST could migrate through soil into nearby waterways. Fuel storage tanks of various sizes and ages exist through most of the planning area. Home heating tanks can hold hundreds of gallons of fuel while tanks used for commercial purposes, including farming and agriculture, can hold thousands of gallons of oil products.
Other Spill Risks Other potential oil spill risks in the area include road run-off during rain events, on-shore or near shore construction activities where heavy equipment is being operated, and the migration of spilled oil through soil on lands adjacent to the lake or along creek/stream banks.

Note 1: Collection for Skimming Operations response options should include use of enhanced skimming using a U- boom, V–boom, or J–boom configuration in waters large enough for boats to maneuver (e.g., lake, large river).
Note 2: Vessel Based Skimming Operations response options should include use of advancing skimmers: weir, belt, brush, drum, or other skimmer types.
Note 3: Shore Based Skimming Operations response options should include use of fixed skimmers: weir, belt, brush, drum, or other skimmer types.
Note 4: Shoreline Protection should include the deployment of response strategies (boom) to divert and collect oil off of the water before shoreline areas are impacted, or deflect and exclude oil away from shoreline areas. These strategies include those published in this document (GRP response strategies), those provided in other plans (e.g., facility contingency plans), and “ad-hoc” strategies developed during the spill itself. A culvert block or underflow dam might be installed to aid in the recovery of spilled oil in small streams or those with intermittent flow.
Note 5: Shoreside Cleanup options depend on safe and efficient access to locations and the type of river, creek, or stream bank present. Potential activities could include flooding, flushing, manual removal, vacuum, mechanical removal, sorbents, vegetation cutting, mechanical tilling/aeration, and/or sediment reworking/surf washing.
Note 6: This sheet doesn’t represent all locations where Tribes and Tribal Nations have lands or areas of specific interest (including lands established by treaty or rights to Usual and Accustom areas). Early coordination with tribal governments is highly recommended during a response, regardless of the spill location or potential impact areas.

4.1 CHAPTER INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides information on GRP response strategies and the order (priority) they should be implemented based on Potential Oil Spill Origin Points (POSOPs), and the proximity of sensitive resources to them. Area maps, sector maps, and information on staging areas and boat launch locations are also provided in this chapter. During a spill incident, GRP response strategies should be implemented as soon as possible. Unless circumstances unique to a particular spill situation dictate otherwise, the priority tables in Section 4.3 should be used to decide the order that GRP strategies are deployed. The movement of oil and the time it takes to mobilize response resources to deploy GRP strategies must always be considered when setting implementation priorities. Response equipment type and location information can be found on the Western Response Resource List (WRRL). The WRRL is available online at http://www.wrrl.us. Information on shoreline countermeasures can be found in the Northwest Area Shoreline Countermeasures Manual (NWACP Section 9420). The Northwest Area Contingency Plan (NWACP) is available online at http://www.rrt10nwac.com/NWACP/Default.aspx.
The GRP strategies provided in this chapter have been created to reduce spilled oil’s impact on sensitive resources. They are not everything that should or could be done during a response to lessen the chance of injury to natural, cultural, and economic resources at risk from oil spills. Although designed to be implemented during the initial phase of an oil spill, GRP strategies may continue to be used throughout a response at the discretion of the Incident Commander or Unified Command.
4.1.1 On-site Considerations:
Before Deploying a GRP Strategy: (Questions to Ask)
Are conditions safe? Response managers and responders must first determine if efforts to implement a response strategy would pose an undue risk to worker safety or the public, based on conditions present during the time of the emergency. No strategy should be implemented if doing so would threaten public safety or present an unreasonable risk to the safety of responders. Has initial control and containment been sufficiently achieved? Source control and containment of the spill at or near the source of a spill are always higher priorities than the deployment of GRP response strategies, especially when concurrent response activities are not possible. How far downstream or out into the lake or marine environment is the spilled oil likely to travel before response personnel will be ready and able to deploy GRP response strategies?
CHAPTER 4 28 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
Are emergency permits required? Consult the Northwest Area Contingency Plan Permit Summary Table (NWACP Section 9401) for information specific to your location and circumstance. Will equipment or vehicles need to be staged on or near a roadway? If so, traffic control may be required. Contact the Washington State Patrol or local, county, municipality, or tribal police for assistance. At minimum, Washington Department of Transportation (WADOT) guidelines for work zone traffic control should be followed when working on or near a roadway.
o Washington State Patrol (District 6 - Wenatchee): (509) 682-8090
o Washington State Patrol (District 4 - Spokane): (509) 227-6566
o Washington State Patrol (Moses Lake Detachment): (509) 765-6171
o Grant County Sheriff (509) 762-1160
o Lincoln County Sheriff: (509) 725-3501
o Moses Lake Police Department (509) 762-1160
During Strategy Implementation (Things to Remember) On-scene conditions (weather, currents, tides, waves, river speed, and debris) may require that strategies be modified in order to be effective. There is a significant chance that weather and conditions experienced at a particular strategy location during an actual spill event will be different from that when data was gathered during field visits. Response managers and responders must remain flexible and modify the strategies provided in this chapter as needed to meet the challenges experienced during an actual response. Certain strategies may call for access points or staging areas that are not easily reached at all times of the year or in all conditions. Oil containment boom must be free of twists, gaps, and debris in order to remain effective. The GRP response strategies provided in this chapter were designed for use with persistent heavy oils that float on water and may not be suitable for other petroleum products or hazardous substances.
CHAPTER 4 29 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
After Strategy Implementation (Things to Understand) Oil containment boom should be maintained and periodically monitored to ensure its effectiveness. Changes in river or current speed will likely require modifications to boom deflection angles (see Table 4-9). Depending on conditions, some booming strategies may require around-the-clock tending. Although designed for implementation during the initial phase of an oil spill, GRP strategies may continue to be deployed and implemented throughout the entire lifespan of a response, as determined appropriate and necessary by the Incident Commander or Unified Command.
Water Speed and Boom Deflection Angle
Measure the speed that water is moving by anchoring a line with two floating markers/buoys attached that are spaced 100 feet apart. Time the movement of floating debris between the two buoys, and then use Table 4.1 to estimate the water speed based on the travel time of the debris between the two buoys. You can also measure 100 feet along a straight portion of river bank or shoreline, and time the movement of debris between those points, but this method is generally less accurate than using the buoys. The maximum boom deflection angle is also provided in the table, based on the water speed measurements.
4.1.2 Historical River Streamflow Ranges:
Streamflow data from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) was used to determine the mean monthly discharge for rivers and streams in the planning area. Stream discharge is recorded in cubic feet per second (cfs); velocities in miles per hour (mph) or nautical miles per hour (knots) are not available. Table 4.1 provides information that can be used to calculate local river velocities on-site, based on the time it takes a floating object to drift 100 feet downstream from any given point in a river or creek. Additional information for USGS gage stations in the planning area are provided below (hyperlinked column headers), and may include real-time or near real-time streamflow data. The USGS National Water System Mapper is useful for locating gage stations of interest, and is available online at http://maps.waterdata.usgs.gov/mapper/index.html.

4.3 STRATEGY AND RESPONSE PRIORITIES
4.3.1 General Response Priorities
The following list provides the order of response priorities after an oil spill.
1. Safety is always the number one priority. Do not implement GRP strategies or take actions that will unduly jeopardize public, worker, or personal safety. 2. Notify local public health and safety personnel. 3. Control and contain the source of the spill; mobilize resources to the spill location. Source control and containment are always a higher priority than the implementation of GRP strategies. 4. Determine the priority or order GRP strategies should be implemented based on the location of the spill or affected area. Priorities based on Potential Oil Spill Origin Points are included in this chapter and should be used unless the situation or circumstances dictate otherwise (see Section 4.3.2). 5. As response resources become available, implement the GRP Strategies in order of priority. 6. In Washington State, if strategy implementation reduces, interrupts, or diverts the flow of water in streams, including the installation of a culvert block or underflow dam, an Emergency HPA must be obtained from WDFW (24-hour pager: (360) 534-8233). Other permits may also be required; see the Northwest Area Contingency Plan (Section 9401) Permit Summary Table for information.
4.3.2 Strategy Priorities based on Potential Spill Origin Points Potential Oil Spill Origin Points (POSOP) are geographic locations that have a defined list of response strategy implementation priorities in a matching table of Section 4.3. The placement of each POSOP is often based on spill risks in the area, including oil pipelines, railways, highways/roadways, tributaries, and vessel movements. Intersections of two or more of these risk locations typically represent a higher spill risk than any one individually, increasing the probability of an oil spill. Occasionally POSOPs are generalized to ensure implementation priorities are developed throughout an entire planning area.
These points are displayed on area overview and sector maps as red boxes. In establishing response priorities during a response, or selecting an appropriate POSOP, the downstream and tidal movement of spilled oil and the time it takes to mobilize and deploy response resources must be considered. Generally, GRP strategies should first be implemented downstream, well beyond the furthest extent of the
CHAPTER 4 40 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015 spill, with deployments continuing upstream towards the spill source and in some cases slightly beyond. POSOPs are alphabetically designated.
The following tables provide the strategy implementation order for POSOPs in the Moses Lake/Crab Creek area; points MOLK-A, and CRAB-A through CRAB-E. These priority tables were determined using a combination of variables, including: notification time, travel time for responders and equipment, average and seasonal flow rates, average winds, tides or currents, deployment time, proximity to potential spill sources, and other considerations.
Source control and containment are a higher priority than GRP strategy implementation

4.5 MATRICES
4.5.1 Naming Conventions (Short Names)
Each strategy, staging area, and boat launch location in this document has been given a unique “Short Name” which includes one to six letters denoting the associated waterbody. Following the letters are numbers that specify the location. On rivers or other linear waterbodies, the location is named by river mile: the distance from the mouth of the river or creek upstream to the site location. Some short names indicate whether the site is located on river right, river left, or mid-river by an “R”, “L” or “M” after the river mile. On lakes, the numbers indicate the location by shoreline mile, typically starting at the northernmost point and increasing clockwise around the lake. In marine areas, the numbers do not have a geographic meaning. Notification strategies are indicated by an “-N” at the end of the name. Staging Areas and Boat Launches are indicated by an “SA-“ or “BL-“ prefix.
Associated short name designations used within this plan include:
CRABC = Crab Creek N = Notification Strategy LORDC = Lords Creek SA = Staging Area MOLK = Moses Lake BL = Boat Launch

- RESOURCES AT RISK
6.1 CHAPTER INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides a summary of natural, cultural, and economic resources at risk in the Moses Lake/Crab Creek area. It provides general information on habitat, fish, and wildlife resources, and locations in the area where sensitive natural resource concerns exist. It offers a summary of cultural resources that includes fundamental procedures for the discovery of cultural artifacts and human skeletal remains. General information about flight restrictions, hazing, and oiled wildlife can be found near the end of this chapter. A list of economic resources in the area is provided in the chapter’s appendix.
This chapter is purposely broad in scope and should not be considered comprehensive. Some of the sensitive resources provided in this chapter are listed because they could not be addressed in Chapter 4 (Response Strategies and Priorities). Additional information from private organizations or federal, state, tribal, and local government agencies should also be sought and considered during spills.
The information provided in this chapter can be used in:
Assisting the Environmental Unit (EU) and Operations in developing additional response strategies beyond those found in Chapter 4 of this plan.
Providing resource-at-risk “context” to responders, clean-up workers, and others during the initial phase of a spill response in the area.
Briefing responders and incident command staff that may be unfamiliar with sensitive resource concerns in the Moses Lake/Crab Creek area.
Providing background information for personnel involved in media presentations and public outreach during an oil spill incident.
6.2 NATURAL RESOURCES AT RISK - SUMMARY
Most biological communities are susceptible to the effects of oil spills. Plant communities on land, eelgrass and marsh grasses in estuaries, and kelp beds in the ocean; microscopic plants and animals; and larger animals, such as fish, amphibians and reptiles, birds, mammals, and a wide variety of invertebrates, are all at potentially at risk from smothering, acute toxicity, and/or the chronic long- term effects that may result from being exposed to spilled oil.
CHAPTER 6 197 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
The Moses Lake / Crab Creek sub-basin affords a wide variety of aquatic, riparian, and upland habitats. These varied habitats support a complex diversity of wildlife species, including large and small mammals; songbirds, birds of prey, upland birds, and waterfowl; reptiles; and amphibians. Some species are resident throughout the year; others are migratory either within the subbasin or, in many cases, seasonally migrate outside the subbasin. Many wildlife species found in the subbasin are classified as threatened, endangered, sensitive, or of special concern under the federal Endangered Species Act or under Washington State guidelines.
Classification types are listed below, with the abbreviation of each type provided in the brackets (to the right of the classification).
Federal Endangered (FE) Federal Threatened (FT) Federal Candidate (FC) Federal Species of Concern (FCo) State Endangered (SE) State Threatened (ST) State Candidate (SC) State Sensitive (SS)
Sensitive species that may occur within this area, at some time of year, include the following federal and state listed species:
Birds: Bald Eagle [FCo/SS] Burrowing Owl [FCo/SC] Clark’s Grebe [SC] Common Loon [SS] Ferruginous Hawk [FCo/ST] Greater Sage-Grouse [FC/ST] Loggerhead Shrike [FCo/SC] Peregrine Falcon [FCo/SS] Sagebrush Sparrow [SC] Sage Thrasher [SC] Western Grebe [SC] White Pelican [SE] Yellow-Billed Cuckoo [FT/SC]
CHAPTER 6 198 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
Mammals: Gray wolf [FE/SE] Pygmy Rabbit [FE/SE] Washington Ground Squirrel [FC/SC] White-Tailed Jackrabbit [SC]
Shellfish: California Floater [FCo/SC]
Amphibian/Reptile: Columbia Spotted Frog [SC] Northern Leopard Frog [FCo/SE] Sagebrush Lizard [FCo/SC]
Plants: Northern Wormwood [FC] Spalding’s Catchfly [FT] Ute ladies-Tresses [FT]
6.2.1 General Resource Concerns
6.2.1a - Habitats:
Wetlands in this region are all freshwater and range from seasonal open marshes to forested swamps along rivers and streams. All wetland types support a diverse array of amphibian, bird, insect, fish, and wildlife species.
Riparian Areas serve as transitional zones between the uplands and the rivers and consequently are heavily used by a variety of wildlife. They also contribute to fish habitat by providing shade, cover, and food.
Side Channels and Impounded Areas provide feeding and resting areas for waterfowl and herons and are important rearing areas for juvenile fish.
Islands provide important nesting habitat for a variety of bird species, as well as habitat for a variety of mammals.
Stream Mouths are concentration areas for fish and are feeding areas for a variety of birds.
6.2.1b - Fish and Shellfish
California Floaters (freshwater mussels) are found throughout most of the region.
Resident Fish present year-round in lake and streams include Largemouth bass, Crappie, Perch, Bullheads and Rainbow trout.
CHAPTER 6 199 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
6.2.1c - Wildlife
Waterfowl Concentrations (significant) exist throughout this GRP region from fall through spring. Hundreds of thousands of geese, swans and dabbling ducks may occupy this region during peak periods. Resident and migratory waterfowl heavily utilize the islands, backwaters, wetlands and adjacent uplands of the region from fall through spring. Numerous islands in this sub-region also provide nesting habitat for resident waterfowl.
Bald Eagles and Great Blue Herons nest throughout the region and forage year-round.
Resident and Migratory Songbirds heavily utilize riparian habitats year-round and are susceptible to oiling if riparian vegetation and shorelines become contaminated.
Other Small Mammals common to the region include beaver, muskrat, river otter, mink and raccoon. All of these small mammals are vulnerable to contact with spilled oil because of their habitat preferences. Larger mammals are also present throughout this area.

CHAPTER 6 202 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
6.3 CULTURAL RESOURCES AT RISK - SUMMARY
Culturally sensitive sites are present within the Moses Lake / Crab Creek GRP area. Due to the sensitive nature of this information, details regarding the location and type of cultural resources present are not included in this document. However, in order to ensure that tactical response strategies do not inadvertently harm historical and culturally sensitive sites, Washington Department of Archeology and Historic Preservation (WDAHP) should be consulted before disturbing any soil or sediment during a response action. WDAHP may assign a person to monitor cleanup operations, or provide a list of professional archeologists that can be hired to monitor response activities.
Information on the location of culturally sensitive sites is maintained by WDAHP and made available to Washington Department of Ecology for oil spill preparedness and response planning. The Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, Spokane Tribe of Indians, Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakima Nation, and Nez Perce Tribe may also be able to provide information on cultural resources at risk in this GRP area and should be consulted. After the Unified Command is established, information related to specific archeological concerns will be coordinated through the Environmental Unit.

6.3.1 Discovery of Human Skeletal Remains
Any human remains, burial sites, or burial-related materials that are discovered during a spill response must be treated with respect at all times. Refer to Section 9403 of the Northwest Area Contingency Plan for National Historic Preservation Act Compliance Guidelines during an emergency response.
CHAPTER 6 203 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
6.3.2 Procedures for the Discovery of Cultural Resources
All work must be stopped immediately and the Incident Commander and Cultural Resource Specialist notified if any person monitoring work activities or involved in spill response believes that they have encountered cultural resources. The area of work stoppage must be adequate to provide for the security, protection, and integrity of the material or artifact(s) discovered.
Prehistoric Cultural Resources: (May include but not limited to any of the following items)
Lithic debitage (stone chips and other tool-making byproducts)
Flaked or ground stone tools

CHAPTER 6 204 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
6.4 ECONOMIC RESOURCES AT RISK SUMMARY
Socio-economic sensitive resources are facilities or locations that rely on a body of water to be economically viable. Because of their location, they could be severely impacted if an oil spill were to occur. Economically sensitive resources are separated into three categories: critical infrastructure, water dependent commercial areas, and water dependent recreation areas. Appendix “6A” of this chapter provides a list of economic resources for this GRP area.
6.5 GENERAL INFORMATION
6.5.1 Flight restriction zones
Flight restriction zones may be recommended by the Environmental Unit (Planning Section) for the purpose of minimizing disturbance that could result in injury to wildlife during an oil spill. By keeping a safe distance or altitude from identified sensitive areas, pilots can minimize the risk of aircraft/ bird collisions, prevent the accidental hazing of wildlife into oiled areas, and avoid causing abandonment of nests. Implementation of Flight Restriction Zones will take place within the Air Operations Branch (Operations Section) after a Unified Command is formed. The Planning Section’s Environmental Unit will work with the Air Ops Branch Director to resolve any potential conflicts with flight activities that are essential to the spill response effort. Typically, the area within a 1,500 ft radius and below 1,000 ft in altitude is restricted to flying in areas that have been identified as sensitive. However, some areas have more restrictive zones. In addition to restrictions associated with wildlife, Tribal authorities may also request notification when overflights are likely to affect culturally sensitive areas within reservations. See Section 9301.3.2 and Section 9301.3.3 of the Northwest Area Contingency Plan for more information on the use of aircraft and helicopters during response operations.
6.5.2 Hazing
After a Unified Command is formed, the Wildlife Hazing Group within the Wildlife Branch (Operations Section) manages wildlife hazing operations. These are actions intended to minimize injuries to wildlife by keeping animals away from the oil and cleanup operations. Hazing includes acoustic or visual deterrent devices, boats, aircraft or other tools. The Wildlife Branch works with state and federal agencies, and the Environmental Unit (Planning Section), to develop hazing plans as appropriate. For more information see the Northwest Wildlife Response Plan (NWACP Section 9310) and Northwest Area Wildlife Deterrence Resources (NWACP Section 9311). Usually, the use of boats and watercraft are restricted within 200 yards of National Wildlife Refuges and other sensitive locations.
6.5.3 Oiled Wildlife
Attempting to capture oiled wildlife can be hazardous to both the animal and the person attempting to capture the animal. Response personnel should not approach or attempt to recover oiled wildlife.
CHAPTER 6 205 MOSES LAKE/CRAB CREEK GRP OCTOBER 2015
Responders should report their observations of oiled wildlife to the Wildlife Branch so appropriate action can be taken. Information provided should include the location, date, and time of the sighting, and the estimated number and kind of animals observed. Early on in the response, before a Unified Command is established, oiled wildlife sightings should be reported to Washington Emergency Management Division. For more information see the Northwest Wildlife Response Plan (NWACP Section 9310).
